Summary

Shift is a decentralized protocol that accelerates the growth of onchain capital and treasury through Real-World Assets (RWAs). SHIFT is the governance token that forms the backbone of the Shift Protocol, aligning stakeholders and driving the adoption of Coinshift’s asset management products. Coinshift’s first asset management product, csUSDL, is a secure, institutional-grade, yield-bearing stablecoin. SHIFT incentivizes asset holders with a sustainable economic model that rewards growth while ensuring token dynamics reflect actual value creation through revenue-based burning and conditional unlocks.

SHIFT Utility

SHIFT serves 3 core purposes:

  1. Alignment & Rewards: Primarily, SHIFT is a mechanism for alignment and rewards. Participants who contribute to the growth and success of the protocol—whether by supplying capital, managing treasuries, or facilitating yield generation—are rewarded with SHIFT tokens. These rewards are distributed proportional to the value each participant brings to the protocol. This ensures that incentives are fair and the protocol is sustainable.

  2. Governance Rights: SHIFT also functions as a governance token. Token holders have the ability to influence key decisions that shape the evolution of the protocol. Governance is exercised through a Senate structure—a fixed body of representatives and stakeholders—responsible for proposing and executing changes to system parameters. Importantly, SHIFT holders are empowered with veto rights over Senate decisions. This governance model allows the protocol to adapt while maintaining checks and balances through community oversight.

  3. Value Capture & Growth: Finally, SHIFT is a vehicle for value capture and sustainable growth. The protocol employs a tokenomic framework that combines conditional unlocks and revenue-based token burning and buybacks.
